Definitions

  • FIG. 2 is a top-view of the steer axle 20 used in the lift truck 10 shown in FIG. 1.
  • the rear wheels 14 are attached to opposite ends of the steer axle 20.
  • Stubs 20A and 20B extend from the opposite back and front ends, respectively, of the steer axle 20.
  • a pair of brackets 22A and 22B are bolted to the truck frame 24 and hold the stubs 20A and 20B, respectively.
  • FIG. 6 shows a rear view of the steer axle 20 while the tire for left steer wheel 14 traverses over an object 55. As the tire rolls over the object 55, the steer axle 20 pivots in a clockwise direction about the center point 25 previously shown in FIG. 5. The clockwise pivoting of the steer axle 20 moves the articulation stop 32A into contact with the frame 24.
  • the left end of rigid steer axle 20 continues to move upward after articulation stop 32A contacts frame 24. This causes the stub 20A to compress bushing 50 downward.
  • the steer axle 20 in this condition pivots about articulation stop 32A at location W.
  • the downward movement of the stub 20A moves the bushing 50 downward partially filling in gaps 52A and 52B (FIG. 5).
  • the center point of stubs 20A and 20B move vertically downward from location 25 to location 27.
  • the pivot point of the steer axle 20 effectively moves laterally out from center line y to the articulation stop 32A at location W.
  • the steer axle 20 may continue to articulate until a bottom end 53 and sides 57 of the rubber bushing 50 fill in a certain portion of the gaps 52A and 52B (FIG.5). In this fully compressed state, the steer axle 20 and the frame 24 move into a semi-rigid fixed relationship with each other. Any additional articulation of the steer axle 20 at this point also articulates the frame 24.
  • FIG. 7 is a top view of the chassis for the lift truck 10 shown in FIG. 1 that uses the suspension system 15 previously shown in FIGS. 5 and 6.
  • the drive wheels 12 are attached to the drive axle 40 and the steer wheels 14 are attached to the steer axle 20.
  • the drive axle 40 is rigidly affixed to frame 24 and does not pivot independently with respect to frame 24.
  • the steer axle 20 pivots about the frame centerline AB in a first articulation range prior to one of the articulation stops 32A or 32B (FIG. 5) contacting frame 24.
  • the lift truck has the triangular stability profile RSV defined by the points R, S, and V.
  • one of the articulation stops 32A or 32B contacts the frame 24 as previously shown in FIG. 6. This may happen, for example, when the tire for one of the steer wheels 14 travels over an object.
  • the lift truck 10 transitions from the triangular stability profile RSV to a trapezoidal stability profile RSUW corresponding to locations R, S, U, and W.
  • the steer axle stubs 20A and 20B can no longer move downward in bushings 50.
  • the gaps 52A and 52B (FIG. 5) are substantially filled in by portions of the rubber bushing 50.
  • the lift truck 10 transitions to a stability profile RSXT approaching a rectangular shape.
  • the stability profile RSXT is larger than the trapezoidal stability profile RSWU and extends out to the wheels 12 and 14.
  • any further lateral articulation of the steer axle 20 causes substantially the same amount of lateral articulation in frame 24.
  • the steer axle 20 rotates laterally about center line 90 and the articulation stops 32A and 32B do not contact frame 24. This produces a triangular stability profile similar to triangular stability profile RSV shown in FIG. 7.
